Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used axle shaft
- Inspect the CV joint boots for cracks or tears. A torn boot means contaminated grease and likely a worn joint.
- Check the splines on both ends for wear, rounding, or corrosion.
- Match the axle length and spline count exactly. AWD and FWD variants of the same vehicle often use different axles.
- Confirm the ABS tone ring is present and undamaged — a missing ring triggers ABS warning lights.
